Horoscopes by Holiday

Happy birthday. Your habit of finding the good in people will bring about a surprise in June, a very social and exciting month. The end of a job comes in July, and you'll use what you learned to start a new venture. Be ready to change paddles midstream and adapt accordingly. August and November bring activity for your love life. Aries and Scorpio people adore you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Presentation will count big-time. Whether you are sharing your ideas with one person or a large group, your level of success will depend on your ability to communicate them well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You'll encounter a discriminatory and unfair arrangement. You are the perfect person to turn the situation around. This one will take time. For now, gather the facts.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Personal trainers instruct their clients to keep working a muscle until they "feel the burn." You'll feel the burn in some way today and should interpret the feeling as a sign that you're getting healthier.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): You'll apply tips and inside information strategically because you are hungry to make a change. Those who know what they are supposed to do but don't act will be inspired and motivated by you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In some key way, you are different from the other people in the room. You will use this to your advantage. Your differences will give you a competitive edge as long as you see them as assets.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Once you quiet your mind, you'll be extremely intuitive. Pay attention to the nuances of this afternoon's situation. Your success will depend on your ability to read the room correctly.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Interpret the problems you encounter as feedback to help you improve. Nothing is a failure unless you choose to see it that way. Your friends are as much a source of help as your rivals.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You are a skilled and powerful player in today's game. You will lead in such a way that people barely feel the force of it. You'll gently guide the action and gain support from many sides.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A scene will improve when a non-threatening and encouraging person steps in to help. You will play the role for someone else later, but now it's your turn to graciously receive.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Get the job done. Don't worry about getting it done "just right." The big picture is what will count to most of the people in today's audience.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): When you know the rules very, very well, you can break them. Until then, you'll enjoy learning all you can about the way things work and abiding by the established laws and boundaries.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): There's something you did in the past that worked well for you that you've since stopped doing. It's time to pick up that skill, habit or tool again, because it will be even more effective this time around.
